China clay traffic was a major freight operation in the South West of England, requiring covered wagons or tarpaulins to protect the fine material from weather damage. These 5 plank wagons represent the adaptable nature of British Rail freight stock during the early BR era.

How to use it

This is a ready-to-run OO scale wagon pack. Simply place the wagons on compatible OO gauge track and couple them into a freight consist. No assembly, paint, or glue is required.
